yes. yes we did.

if you wanna come back I will be here with open arms!!!

Mmm...tastes like chicken.

Let's hope it doesn't. Watch out for those kidneys; you only have two, and replacements are expensive.

A dead horse killed my father.

Aww I missed your birthday by about a million. Oh well, I will make it up to you in KoL with some sort of celebratory saucery...and pomp, definetly there will be pomp.

Are the Vultures still there?

I was so excited that I forgot to stretch my pointing finger before going into the grand jury today. When I went to point at the defendant, my finger ripped right off. Painful and embarrassing.

I'm not getting some cheap, American-made finger just because some relative's sappy E-mail has a story about some doofus who's out of a job. Nope, it's a Japanese, or better yet a German, finger for me. You won't see my finger flying across a courtroom and hitting an assistant D.A. in the shin ever again.

I spend usually 17 hours a week on the reference desk and the rest of the time doing YA stuff or in meetings. I run a program called "Homework Help" for teens in the afternoons and evenings, Tuesday through Thursday and Saturday afternoon. Most of the 17 hours fall during these times.

I knew I wanted to do reference in a public setting. I feel somewhat compelled to contribute to society at the local level. I discovered I liked YA work while I was in grad school. It seems like they might be grooming me to take over the tech side of things when the director retires in a few years.

Well, I figure Bitch Go Make me a Sandwich is the exact opposite of this book:

Author: Friedman, Sonya.
Title: A hero is more than just a sandwich : how to give up junk food love and find a naturally sweet man
Publication info.: New York : Putnam, c1986.

With that, the Dewey Number ought to be this: -646.78

I've got a degree in history and one in geography. At one point I thought I might go into speech pathology. Of course, this was prior to my discovering how poor I was at science. I wanted to make some sort of contribution to society (and not in a make-huge-corporate-bucks-and-trust-it-will-trickle-down-to-the-little-people kind of way), but after a few seasons of teaching swim lessons, I realized standing in front of a class day after day wasn't my bag.

Huh? Did you just meet a copy of yourself that traveled back in time from the future or something?

So you're a librarian, too, ay? How did you enter the field?

As far as any ooh-la-la's associated with my being a male librarian, I guess I am a favorite among a handful of married mothers of two. I need to work in a library in some east-side Portland neighborhoods. I think I'd find more women my age who'd be impressed. Not to mention the increase in pay.

I came to this journal too late to know what full circle might be referring to, but as I hate to feel left out, I'll pretend you were referring to Full House. Did you see when Uncle Joey talked in a funny voice? That was hilarious.

I agree. Sometimes vacations are fucking overrated.

hey stinky! guess who? vagina tag...

Woo Hoo on the good grades! You should come out to the Living Room tonight to meet us and celebrate.
Shit, I haven't kept up...I didn't know about the single thing. Glad you found a place to live. Fresh starts can be a good thing.
But seriously, if you think you can make out tonight, you should totally go. Sasquatch and the Sick-a-Billies, it will be good times, and it would be cool to meet you. Show starts at 8:00, we'll probably be there around 8:30 or 9:00. If not, happy holidays!!

Edited to say that I should read group threads before I post in anyone's journal. Have fun at your mom's!!

Straight A's who'd you have to do it with to pull that off missy!?

wow. well i'm glad you feel right about it. the apartment part sucks though!

No better solution than to come get drunk with the rest of us.

P.S. If you want, I'll evict my cousin who lives in the upstairs apartment, it's not really working out anyway.

It is a lovely shirt. I love the Anthropologie way too much.

Almost December. I love December.

Wow, you're so crafty!
I hope you get your purse back soon. Sorry about your holiday blues. Hope everything works out.
